Profile Information
Ceiling T-bars are lightweight steel profiles with an inverted T-shaped cross section, providing strong support for suspended ceiling systems in commercial, industrial, and public buildings. They are widely used throughout the Middle East, Southeast Asia, Africa, Europe, and Latin America.
Typically manufactured from galvanized steel or pre-painted galvanized steel (PPGI), ceiling T-bars are produced by a specialized T bar roll forming machine, ensuring accurate dimensions, stable assembly performance, and excellent installation compatibility.
How Does The Roll Forming Machine Work?
Machine Details
Hydraulic decoiler unit
Two hydraulic decoilers synchronize the upper and lower steel coils, supplying stable material feeding throughout production.
This dual-coil design ensures accurate profile assembly, continuous operation, and reliable forming quality for ceiling T-bar manufacturing.
| Power Type | Manual | Steel Coil Width | Max 1250mm |
| Loading Capacity | 5/7/10 Ton | Expanding Range | 460-50mm |
Roll Forming Machine
The T bar roll forming machine features a rigid wall-panel structure combined with a durable chain driving system, providing stable transmission and consistent forming accuracy.
Multiple roller stations gradually shape both steel strips into the finished profile while maintaining excellent dimensional precision, production stability, and long service life.
| Speed | 20m/min | Forming Station | 18 Stands |
| Motor Power | 7.5Kw | Shaft Diameter | 76mm, solid |
| Driving System | Chain | Roller Material | Gcr15,HRC58-62° |
| Frame Structure | Wall panel | Shaft Material | 40Cr heat treatment |
Flying hydraulic cutting & punching unit
The flying hydraulic cutting unit synchronizes its traveling speed with the moving profile, allowing cutting without stopping the roll forming process. This continuous operation improves production efficiency, maintains cutting accuracy, minimizes profile deformation, and supports stable high-speed manufacturing.
PLC Control Cabinet & Encoder
In a cold roll forming line, the encoder works with the PLC to provide real-time feedback on material position and speed, ensuring precise feed, synchronized forming, and accurate length control for cutting and punching.
Production speed, product length, and quantity can be set on the control cabinet. The display language can be customized according to customer requirements.
